The Failure

[Verse 1]
Give it away, watch it turn
There's nothing I can do for you
These are my very last
Don't we all know it
As chemistry turns into crime
I'm helplessly watching it die

[Pre-Chorus]
You were never supposed to be
Someone who'd get this close

[Chorus]
This is not my victory
Get your sickness away from me
Accusations in velveteen
Tear it up tear it open and lay it beside me

[Verse 2]
Show me a way something frail
Gimme one reason to break these chains
I played your very last
All your desires
But something inside of me broke
I used to be more than this

[Pre-Chorus]
You were never supposed to be
Someone who'd come this close

[Chorus]
This is not my victory
Get your sickness away from me
Accusations in velveteen
Tear it up tear it open and lay it beside me

[Post-Chorus]
Together we fall
Together we fail

[Bridge]
Drain me from all life inside
I will hurt you ever so carefully
We will breathe in unison
Through an iron lung
For the lost things we become
I'll be your crown of thorns and
You'll be my cross to bear

[Outro]
You hate me so good
